About Iso Rabins:

Chef and forager Iso Rabins is the founder of forageSF and The Wild Kitchen.  The Wild Kitchen is an underground restaurant in San Francisco, a roving dining experience that focuses on wild foraged foods. From houseboats to Victorians, these rambling feasts always feature local, wild foraged, ingredients.  Introducing locals to the amazing wealth of wild edibles just beyond their doorsteps, Rabins hopes to give eaters a new awareness of their environment, bringing them together around a communal table to talk, eat, and leave with new ideas about where food comes from, what the value of nature is, and with different thoughts about meaning of “wild”.

October 9th,2009 BREADBAR | Century City presents Reckless Beach, seven recent works by painter and designer Julie Roemen. A longtime resident of Oregon, this native southern Californian returns to Los Angeles for her first exhibition here. As a proud wife and mother of four, Roemen brings her day-to-day energetic design sensibility to a series of materials-oriented canvases created outdoors.

"At the coast, the creative process flows with no limitations or expectations," says Roemen. "I use tools other than paintbrushes--such as rags, my hands, water pressure from a garden hose, glue resist, sticks and shells for cutting through layers of paint."

Julie currently lives and works in Eugene and Florence, Oregon. For inquiries or to see more of Roemen's work including her line of sterling silver jewelry, visit www.jroemendesigns.com
